Wagtail-bakery is built on top of Django bakery. Please read their documentation for detailed configuration and how to build default Django flat files. Yes. Wagtail-bakery is not limited to build Wagtail pages specifically, mixed content is possible!

Single management command that will build your Wagtail site out as flat files
Support for multisite, theming and multilingual setup
Support for i18n_patterns

Installation

pip install wagtail-bakery

Add bakery and wagtailbakery to your INSTALLED_APPS setting.

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    # ...
    'bakery',
    'wagtailbakery',
)

Configuration

Define whether you want to build multiple sites or the default site (see examples for impact on directory output), by default this settings is False.

BAKERY_MULTISITE = True

Add the build directory where you want to be the site be built as flat files.

BUILD_DIR = '/tmp/build/'

As you may know with Django bakery, the trickiest part is to make your current models/pages buildable with Buildable views. As Django Wagtail uses only the Page model at their lowest level, you can use at least one of the already present Buildable views provided by Wagtail bakery.

Build all published public pages (use for production).

BAKERY_VIEWS = (
	'wagtailbakery.views.AllPublishedPagesView',
)

Build all published and unpublished public pages (use for staging/acceptance).

BAKERY_VIEWS = (
	'wagtailbakery.views.AllPagesView',
)

Usage

Build the site out as flat files by running the build management command.

manage.py build

If you want to check how your static website will look, use the buildserver command after you have build your static files once.

manage.py buildserver

Examples

In the examples directory you can find a Wagtail setup with fixtures for a single site as well as a multisite setup.

Create a virtualenv and go to one of the examples, you can use the Make command to install all requirements, load fixtures and run the server.

As described in the usage section, use manage.py build to build out the example as static files.

Build output with BAKERY_MULTISITE=True:

build/example.com/index.html
build/example.com/about/index.html
build/example.com/blog/index.html
build/example.com/blog/example/index.html
build/static/

Build output with BAKERY_MULTISITE=False (default):

build/index.html
build/about/index.html
build/blog/index.html
build/blog/example/index.html
build/static/
